'ONE FC 9: Rise to Power' fighters on weight, cleared for title fights

After a few last-minute changes and catchweight fights, all competitors are now on weight for Friday’s “ONE FC 9: Rise to Power” event.

Headliners Honorio Banario (144.7 pounds) and Koji Oishi (144.8), who fight for the organization’s vacant featherweight title, were among those weighing in.

ONE FC 9 takes place at Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City, Philippines. It’s available as an online pay-per-view ($9.99), though prelims, including a Tim Sylvia vs. Tony Johnson super-heavyweight bout, are available for free.

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
